ryan, romney tax cut plan. did either side make the case that their tax ideas were better? >> no is the answer. but what kills me is this president extended the tax cuts last year with the rationale that you don't increase taxes during a recession. >> but trying to pin paul ryan down on the specifics of what deductions he would get -- what he would take away to fill in that $5 trillion or whatever it is, and he wouldn't answer the question. >> , first of all, neither side has done that, and the little pbs comment from the last debate led to all sorts of big bird -- what paul ryan and what mitt romney said during the campaign is, when president reagan sat down, it was democratic leadership, everything is on the table. hit's get it done. we both know that, because we've both been there. we've both been part of compromises. >> when you heard him refuse to give any specifics without a win for the democrats. >> i think it's going to be a win for those people who really take it seriously. the fact is, it doesn't add

we have a massive tax increase, a repeal of the bush tax cuts, we have the social security tax that is reenacted for employees of 2%. we have the over trillion dollar spending issue. it is about 5% of our economy. neil: what you think the market is doing? >> i am very concerned about what the market is doing. when you look at stock prices today, the fiscal cliff is not yet built. neil: they don't even see that as a possibility. the closer we get, the more they start getting antsy and. >> again, i'm very concerned about that. antsy for sure. and i don't think that we are going to get a solution to this thing, certainly before the end of the year. neil: so you don't even buy the six-month extension think? >> when we can stop looking at this thing in bits and pieces. this is not what leaders do. leaders are decisive. neil: when it comes to the sequestration cuts that they agree to, they are trying to change the rules on that. >> i cannot disagree with you there, neil. but i would ask your audience to think back to when barack obama was running for president. he ran as a uniter. he was goi

what tax approach do you think could be negotiated in the lame duck? >> you know, we've had deadlock for two years and it's been on the revenue side, not on the cutting side. we always seem to agree on various cuts to make, whether on the domestic discretionary programs like education or highways or on the entitlement programs, but we never seem to agree on revenues. i think one of the major stumbling blocks which i've pointed out people have bought on to the theory as part of deficit reduction we ought to lower the top rate on the highest income people. you lose a ton of revenue there and you can't make it up unless you squeeze the middle class. so if you're going to start out by saying the first thing we do is lower the rate from say 35 to 28 as simpson-bowles does or 25 as ryan does it's virtually impossible do deficit reduction without hurting the middle class. my suggestion intended to break this deadlock, this gridlock we've had on getting a budget deal for the last year and a half, let's get off this thing that the first thing we do is say we're
